Fictionwise is Closing

So, you probably know this by now, but Fictionwise is on its way out. A few years ago Fictionwise was a major e-tailer. It was THE place to sell e-books. Now, not so much.

Here's the e-mail they sent around earlier this week:

Dear Fictionwise Customer,

As you may know, in March of 2009, Fictionwise (comprised of several
eBook retail websites, including Fictionwise.com, eReader.com and
eBookwise.com) was acquired by Barnes & Noble.

Fictionwise is in the process of winding down its operations. The
Fictionwise sites will end sales on December 4, 2012 and you will not be
able to access your Fictionwise Bookshelf through the site after
January 31, 2012.

If you have deposited Micropay Dollars, a Buywise Club membership or an
eMagazine subscription with undelivered issues, we will reimburse you as
they will no longer be valid after December 4, 2012. You will receive a
separate communication regarding this matter.

For more information about the Fictionwise wind down, including
additional details on how this change in service will apply to current
Buywise Club members, eMagazine subscriptions, Micropay Dollars and
more, please visit our FAQ web page: http://www.fictionwise.com/BN-Transition-FAQ.htm

We greatly appreciate your support of Fictionwise over the years. Together, we helped pioneer eBooks and eReading.
